- In theory it *should* work okay from a RAM-Disk!! (The program takes
- up just under 1 1/2 meg, so no problem with memory!

- I've actually Packed the .PRG files with 'PFX-Pack' and put all the files
- onto one twister-format disk. Net result, faster loading of the .PRG files,
- and all the others due to the twister format. and no disk-swapping. It's
- still annoying to play, as it accesses the disk too much!
